LOL!!!

Quote From: yesyoucan

Nice to have you visiting me in typo City, MJ. I was feeling like the Lone Ranger here. I just wanted you to know that I empathize with your not being able to correct angel since you are a perfectionsit like me. Have a GREAT day angel. If you are going to be an angle might as well be a "right" angel (I mean angle). I have noticed lots of people, including me, have angles watching over them...angels too. I couldn't resist MJ since I know you and I both are perfectionists. Hugs and prayers, SEA

Oh My Goodness! 

I have started my day right (angle)! 

Still laughing and shaking my head!

Mar

Quote From: mernziepoo

  

I am just coming on for a quick minute. I would like to have my friends pray for me please or rather pray for my family, and for our being able to continue. It will have been one year now since that fateful time in October. I received an invitation once again from the society ladies. Powerful women hard to say no...no one but my husband and my friends at DP know about the truth of that day, the day God woke me up well that day is coming again and I am afraid to face it. 

  

My son was sick my husband was harsh and today will be a 14 hour work day. I just feel week everyone and need to know that you are praying for us all. I don't like to be selfish and ask for myself so instead I say for y family because if things get that bad again it is them who will suffer more as well. Pray for peace, pray for wisdom, pray for successful mergers, but please whisper prayers when you think of us. 

  

Many many blessings Mar. 

Yes Mar we will, always.Please take care! 

You are an angel too!

When you say>>>>>

Quote From: misfitgirl

I just wanted to say thank you for your help and info. It sux cuz i am a little addicted to alcohol. I like to drink once a week and i mean to the point where i am really drunk. So i dont think tahts a good idea any more. I guess i have more problems then i thought. But thanks again. I am only on 10 mg so i dont know if thas enough to even feel anything. I also went and had my thyroid checked and i will get the results too taht soon. Oh also do u know how long it takes to get a results from a thyroid checked. 

When you say that you are a little addicted to alcohol it set off a cord with me.  Now I am not calling you and alcoholic because I don't even know you. But I would like you to consider getting your hands on The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous and read it. It may help you decide if alcohol is a real problem in your life. For me the road out of depression started when I quit drinking and I learned to rely on a power greater than myself. I would like you to consider the efects of alcohol on your body and brain and give not drinking a try. Remember that detoxing from alcohol can be very dangerous so if  you start having detox symptoms you need to get to an ER immediately. If you have health insurance they usually cover up to 72 hours of detox from alcohol so Take advantage of it. I've got to go now because I've got a date with my son's to pick pumpkins. 

  

I will write more later.

Hi Everyone....

Yes boy is it ever raining cats and dogs here now for 5 days in a row however did we ever need the rain so I am not being negative about it!  It has turned cold and grey and bleak this is the fall on the EAST COAST.  It is very rare we have a sunny day.... 

  

I love the East coast.  The change of seasons.  I also love being stuck on the inside when it snows 16 inches too!  Weird right? 

  

I bought 4 more prayer candles so I will be home today but they are lit for all of us....Hold on a second... 

  

These are the candles I have lit for us today.....Saint Michael, Saint Clara,Angel de la Gurda(Guardian Angel) The most powerful Hand,   Then my ususal ones...MY JESUS CANDEL,  St. Thomas, Virgin de guadalupe,  and San Juan Diego... 

  

Trust me board WE ARE ALL Covered...Here and as well over at OPRAH. 

  

My prayers cover all of us here....  xoxoxo

The priest said that prayer candles are representative of prayers rising up to heaven ... and ... many tangibles are only there as a focal point of the intangibles sort of like string around the finger reminders of what is important. I love the type of candles you have and I do TRUST YOU that we "ARE" ALL covered. My prayers are cyber wide as well via mini votive prayer candles sort of as spiritual icing on the cake to yours. WOW! I am going to be on the look out for LOTS of blessings today. Just now as i walked up from an errand the painter said I read his mind. Someone we have known since a child so okay and not said to flirt. We were having a cascade moment. I went to get the new cascade tablets with Dawn and sold out everywhere and Jay said..."Big Lots and Wallmart has them" as we sang the praises of the convenience and I think works better than powder. So does Jay. Oh well... Shocking for a man to get me so if Glenn reads this...men are realizing that they are entitled to feel too. So okay you are feeling...men have aches and pains too and looks like, amazing grace, some even know about Cascade tablets with Dawn. However, I never thought I'd see the day a young man knew the many pluses of Cascade with dawn tablets. Truly, the world is changing for the better in many aspects. Your mega saintly candles will last around 24 hours or so won't they? Been awhile since I had one of those...I usually get mine at the prayer candle light area at church. They have three areas to light candles and pray.... Two private chapels and the chapel where I was married in 1988. Hugs and prayers to you and all...my mini votive is still going and should last five hours...as I timed once. Thank you. SEA
